Central Córdoba de Santiago vs Club Atlético Belgrano Prediction: Belgrano Continues to Upset Oppositions

In the upcoming fixture of the Argentine Primera Division, Matchday 3, Central Cordoba de Santiago will take on Club Atletico Belgrano at the Estadio Alfredo Terrera Central Córdoba. The upcoming fixture will be an important home fixture for Santiago as they will be playing at home. With a draw and a defeat in the opening matches, Central Cordoba stands 24th in the points table. Whereas, Belgrano has managed to stay in the top ten standings by accumulating 4 points from 2 matches played so far. The upcoming matchup will be the first official outing of Central Cordoba against Belgrano in the Argentinian Primera.

Going in the matchup, Central Cordoba is yet to win a game and secure winning points, but it certainly ruined the day for Boca (0-0). In the last game against Boca, Cordoba was almost near the winning mark, however, Facundo Castelli missed the goal scoring opportunity on penalty in the 66th minute of play. Apart from this Cordoba had a possession of just 28%, which reflects poor aggression, passing, and overall gameplay. Taking stats from the last season, Central Cordoba has been defeated thrice at home. However, for the upcoming fixture Cordoba will be confident for registering their first win of the season and that too at home.

When promoting Atletico Belgrano in Primera A, who would have thought that this team would acquire 4 out of 6 possible points in the two initial matches? However, Belgrano has managed to stay on top of its game and outperform River Plate (2-1) and Racing Club (0-0). Pablo Vegetti gave Belgrano an important start, scoring in the 38th minute of play. Next, he cemented the lead in the second half, scoring in the 68th minute of play. Though Belgrano’s possession was just 34%, it still managed to produce two goal scoring shots on target. If Belgrano manages to continue with its consistent game form, it can easily stay in the top eight standings. Moreover, Belgrano’s conceding average is recorded at about 0.50 goals per game, which is quite decent compared to other sides.

The team that has given shock waves to the tournament’s favorite, will look to exploit Cordoba’s home run and previous form. Hence, I am supporting Belgrano to win another interesting match and push Central down in the table standings. I believe the upcoming matchup will be an high scoring event and the final scoreline to be 1-2
